  • 37 - Nathan Whitlock and Finding Your Way Back to The Story
    Oct 19 2023

    Thanks for coming back Lonely Writers! Today I had the absolute pleasure of chatting with Nathan Whitlock, author of the dark, satiric novel LUMP.

    LUMP is a dark comedy about marriage, motherhood, privilege, and power, about a woman whose attempt to escape crises in her health and marriage ends up causing only more chaos.

    This episode is basically a love letter to Nathan’s wife, a talented writer in her own right and the many other female writers who have inspired much of his writing, but it’s also a deeply inspirational conversation about writing amid the deepest grief and finding your way back to the story. 

    Make sure to pick up a copy of LUMP if you haven’t already and you can stay connected with Nathan by following him on social or online at https://www.nathanwhitlock.ca/
